A list of books I've read recently with some gibberish thrown in masquerading as indepth criticism.

CREATIONISTS - E L Doctorow

This is a collection of essays on authors and their works.

He covers Poe, Hemingway, Fitzgerald, a bit of the Bible, Mark Twain and many others.

All the essays are thought provoking, entertaining and he doesn't really rate E A Poe- His overwrought style is so filled with an essayist's rhetorical vines and brambles that you have to slash and hack if you're to make your way through the story.
A good collection.
